Alessi Pulcina Induction 6-Cup Espresso Pot Red

Alessi Pulcina Induction espresso pot is a beautiful and unique pot dedicated to coffee lovers around the world. The espresso pot has a capacity of 6 cups corresponding to approx. 30 cl.

Pulcina is the result of intensive research and optimization of the espresso pot's shape to improve the coffee experience and avoid a bitter and burnt aftertaste. The pot's V-shaped pouring spout resembles a chicken's beak and is specifically designed to cut perfectly when pouring. Pulcina means chick in Italian, and it is precisely the spout that is the reason the pot got its name.

Alessi Pulcina espresso pot was designed by Michele De Lucchi in collaboration with Illy coffee and was launched in 2015. The collaboration to develop the pot has taken 15 years and the result is a unique and incredibly appealing espresso pot!

The red handle and the lid's knob are made of heat-resistant plastic, so you can serve the coffee immediately after brewing.

The espresso pot is made of aluminum and on this model the base is made of stainless steel, so it can be used on all stovetop types - including induction. If it is used on a gas stove, one should expect that the pot will become discolored, and this is not covered by the warranty. Should only be hand-washed, as aluminum is not dishwasher safe!

Note: Avoid leaving water in the pot after use, as it will form rust. 

Note. Before you use the induction pot it is recommended that you test whether it works on your induction hob. This is simply done by placing the pot on the hob WITHOUT coffee and water in it, and feeling whether the pot becomes heated. Please test this on several of your cooking zones - the pots often work best on zones that match their size.
